Or use an unofficial client to play the game without an account. Java MC will always have superior Modding support due to bigger community and the fact that Java is so easy to decompile and work with. Plus it's CPU agnostic only needing Java runtime on that platform, rather than to be fully recompiled.

With minetest you don't have to recompile anything, mods are not only supported but available to install directly from the main menu.

You will if you want to run it on different CPU architectures, but Java apps can run on any platform with a Java runtime.

I also meant modding support in terms of people making mods for the game.
